When does this happen?

IF When using create_or_update_file tool via MCP GitHub server, the call fails with error -32604 or -32603: 'Invalid arguments: content.encoding: Required, content.content: Required'.

How others solved it

THEN Use the push_files tool as a workaround to create or update files instead of create_or_update_file. Ensure your GitHub MCP server is updated to include the fix from PR #434. Verify that your GitHub personal access token has the 'Contents' permission with write access.
